Eventually I may go FFIM. This set-up worked very good for Duane so I'm interested to see what type of numbers I put down first. The intake is P&P and the throttle body is ported to 64.6mm.
After I get everything situated and running correctlyn my goal is to clean up the engine bay. There's a...
Rodel, I think you just saved me a shit load of money. I appreciate the help man. I'm going to check out those links and see what I can find. In the mean time, this is how I would like my wheels to fit. Just using these as a reference...
So you're saying a 18x10 wheel with a +23 offset and a 113mm (4 1/2 inches) lip isn't aggressive enough? My main concern is having everything flush, or as close as possible. I really don't care about "aggressive". I hear what you're saying and there's no doubt in my mind it will look great, but...
Yeah I did a lot of searching through BorHor's Wheel Thread. I looked through tons of pictures of different wheel set-ups. +35 seems to fit pretty well.
I'm under the impression that lower the offset, the more flush the wheels will be. Therefore I'm assuming a rear offset of +23 should be...
I just checked out the GT-S Wheels. I gotta say they're pretty sharp. The Gunmetal with a polished lip is sick. This is what they look like:
Fronts will be 18x8 +33 w/ a 49mm lip (They also have +27 & a 55mm lip)
Rears will be 18x10 +23 w/ a 113mm lip (They also have +23 & +38 w/ a...
Yeah Bryan. I figured it was about time. I've been working on it long enough might as well post some pictures up. :icon_razz
I like Volks. I think they're well made. A couple friends of mine had some and they were sharp. I'll check on the GT-S. Gunmetal would be sweet. I would go well with...
Haha there's nothing wrong with being conservative Chris. I like your style lol. My reasoing is if I'm spending the money on those brakes, why not have them visible right? :biglaugh: They're too pretty to be hidden. ;)
That's not a bad idea. I'll see what happens.
I thought they look pretty nice. I think they'd show off the ARZ brake kit too :naughty: I have to call and ask them about the rear lip situation. In that pic you can see the rear wheel has quite the lip, while the front wheel doesn't. I wonder if that has to do with the offset...?

I'm thinking about buying these wheels. They're Volk SF Challenges. The color pictured is Mercury Silver. I think I'd get them in in a Rays Metal Coat (RMC). The size would be 18x8 +35 and 18x10 +35. They're pretty pricey, but I like them. What do you guys think?
Stay away from the sharp objects! :icon_surp
I can't wait to see it done either. I had a tad more black mixed into the paint so it might turn out to be a little darker. The metallic flake looks increadible though.
I tried to build a complete car. Some people either put all of their time...
We'll get it done man. All we need is a couple weekends and she'll be ready to rock. Like I said, we need to finish 'em up cause summer is right around the corner ;)
JDMMA70--No vids as of yet. I'll make sure to get a few when I'm at the dyno and maybe on the way back ;)

Thanks Emp. I've got to take some more recent pictures. These are mostly old. I want to do a lot of cleaning to the engine bay. Get rid of most of the wires and make it much more "clean" looking.
I can't wait to see how its going to look with a new paint job.

Well I finally decided it was time for me to start my own build thread.
Background:
Purchased my first Supra when I was 16 years old. It's an 1987 NA. I basically did every bolt-on mod possible. I used a lot of information from Dean Marcum. I finally realized I needed something faster...
